Can you be more specific? What are your total calories at? How much protein/carbs/fat? Are you logging everything you eat into something like myfitness pal? what exactly does your workout include?

With those details I'm sure people can give you more specific advice.

What GG said. Gotta log it so you can see where the issues are. Are you following the sleeve basics? That seems to help lots of people get back on the horse.

Protein first

64 oz minimum Water

Don't drink with your meals.

If you want to get back on track, it might be a good idea to just try to stick to what worked for you early in your program. Can you visit your doctor or nut for a check up? Good luck.

im 11 months out also. i log on mfp religiosly, stay below 1000 cals a day. dont exercise like i should. afraid ive reahed my "happy weight" and wont be able to lose more without some serious effort. but i feel complacent and pretty comfortable at this weight. size 14. 23 pounds to goal.

ill bet that the increase in your exercise will get that scale moving again. Hang tough! we'll get there.

How far away from goal are you?

we all know we are going to hit the wall someday, i think that scares me more than surgery, even with all my limitations, i don't feel like i am,"dieting". i am loosing so slowly now i am going to have to diet to reach goal....shades of bad memories

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
